NBA? Without basketball they would be picking cotton and they will be too if the league don't get its act together regarding the wage cap.

that's pure racism right there.

I thought we finally kicked it out of football but there it is, landing direct onto baskeball.
it's not right, not right at all.

btw the final is starting, come on Miami!
 
It's not racist. If anything, it's grounded in a partially accurate notion that African countries have benefited from the discovery of cotton, without which they wouldn't have had the resources to modernize the way they have.
 
well put, can't argue with that

still racism and should be reported, you junior kkk

in other news: miami - dallas 18:16
no, wait - 23:18
 
Mavs take game 1 and that's with Wade and Shaq doing well (save free throw shooting) and Dirk playing the invisible man role.

Dirk's struggles don't bode well for Miami. The Suns held him to 11 points and the next game he dropped 50.

I see Dallas up 2-0. In that scenario, Miami has to win games 3-5 at home or they're done. If they lose 1 of the 3 at home, I can't envision them winning games 6 and 7 in Dallas.

Game 2 is a must win for Miami, IMO. But I don't think they will.

Now try to relate the NBA to African countries. Most of the dark skinned folks you see playing hoops in the league are "African-Americans," that is, citizens of the USA whose presence in the country goes back to as early as 1619. Your connection of those Americans to developing nations in a continent across the Atlantic is at least perniciously "racial" if not racist.
 
Haven't been following with exams and the World Cup. So how good has Nowitzki been?
 
couldn't watch the live games myself. saw the reruns. don't know the stats but nowitzki's been in top form of late.

shaq i think broke his own record for missing free throws in the first game. been playing well otherwise. so was wade.
 
:lol: @ Shaq missing free throws. He needs Chip Engelland :p

Come on Mavs, i hate the Eastern conference..

I can understand not liking a team, but the entire conference? Why such hatred Jacquline? :)
 
Its nice to finally win one. I had to endure the first Heat season back in the 80s when we lost our first 17 games. Nice to see Riley win one again as well.
